Created attachment 147787 [details] The blank applet SUMMARY I know the intended way of creating a shortcut to change keyboard layout is through system settings, but it also should theoretically be possible to add a shortcut through the keyboard layout applet settings. Sadly, if it is done that way, ins STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have several different keyboard layouts 2. See the language shorthand in the system tray 3. Click it and the layout changes 4. Right click on the applet -> Configure keyboard layout... -> Keyboard Shortcuts 5. Add a shortcut 6. Use the shortcut OBSERVED RESULT An empty applet appears See screenshot EXPECTED RESULT The language is changed as if the applet was clicked SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Garuda Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.16.16-zen1-1-zen (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × AMD Ryzen 5 3500U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx Memory: 5.7 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm not sure what would be the correct way of fixing it since having 2 different ways of switching layouts is very janky. Maybe the applet settings and the system settings should be synced? Maybe opening the applet settings shortcut section should open the system settings?
